Programatically getting available fields for AWQL to service calls (and reports too I suppose)

I'm in the process of writing a simplified wrapper for the Adwords API client lib and it would be really helpful if there was some way to get a list of AWQL fields for service calls other than copy/pasting them from this website: https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/selector

Re: OAuth2 Campaign update issue (c#)

Hi Abhijit, You need to use OAuth2 as authentication mechanism instead of authToken. AdWords API no longer supports ClientLogin as of v201402. From your code snippet, it doesn't look like you are using the AdWords API client library, so you need to use a third party library like http://dotnetop

Hi Anash, Hours do determine how many operators are working, but not how many are available, as the time of day doesn't predict when operators will be handling a call and when they'll be available. I really need fine grained control, perhaps even on a minute by minute basis. What I really need

Re: ERROR_GETTING_RESPONSE_FROM_BACKEND when including CampaignId in PLACEHOLDER_FEED_ITEM_REPORT

Hi Jeremy, ERROR_GETTING_RESPONSE_FROM_BACKEND usually happens when the amount of data being requested is very large, and there is a timeout between the API server and stats server. Try reducing the size of the report by removing some columns, or restricting the report to a shorter date range /

Re: Modifying CPC bid accross multiple ads by a common factor

Hi Dominic, If work hours is something that decides how many operators your client has at a given point, then you could consider using AdSchedules instead. You can set bid modifiers on them, at campaign level. See https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201402/CampaignCriteri

Re: CONCURRENT MODIFICATION Error

Hi Luca, Your approach of batching keyword operations by adgroups is fine, but you can also try staggering the batches such that successive API calls don't go to a single adgroup. That should reduce the frequency of CONCURRENT MODIFICATION errors. Cheers, Anash P. Oommen, AdWords API Advisor.

Re: Adding campaigns and kws multiple times

Hi Luca, The keyword will be added only once. I'm not sure why such a difference exists in this behaviour, I guess AdWords throws error on duplicate campaign name because it enforces that condition, whereas you could add a keyword, delete it, add it back again and so on, so throwing an error fo
